A request for ETHERNET Cards
----------------------------
In a conversation with Chris at ecst.csuchico.edu
that follows, the group there is very excited about extending
the entire implementation of network cards for 386BSD..
THEY NEED YOUR HELP!
THEY NEED YOUR HELP!
THEY NEED YOUR HELP!
Assistance is needed in all forms... and most of
all they need networkd cards to test. They know about
the clarkson implementation of drivers for DOS and the IBM.
They will be using this as a basis for their work. Help
them if you can... I will be loaning them some of my
own personal cards as time permits....
Once again... contact Chris at the internet address
below and give them a hand with Network cards.
